Benefits of technology

[0007] Under the above circumstances, the present invention has an object of providing an organic EL device which exhibits a high purity of color, has excellent heat resistance and a long life and efficiently emits bluish to yellowish light and an organic light emitting medium which can be advantageously used for the organic EL device.
[0008] As the result of extensive studies by the present inventors to achieve the above object, it was found that, when an organic light emitting medium comprised a combination of a specific arylamine compound and at least one compound selected from specific anthracene derivatives, spirofluorene derivatives, compounds having condensed rings and metal complex compounds and an organic electroluminescence device had a layer of the medium disposed between a pair of electrodes, the organic EL device exhibited a high purity of color, had excellent heat resistance and a long life and efficiently emitted bluish to yellowish light. The present invention has been completed based on this knowledge.

Problems solved by technology

Although bisanthracene derivatives can be used as the material emitting blue light, the efficiency of light emission and the life are insufficient for practical applications.
However, the organic EL device using this material cannot be used for the practical applications since the device has poor heat resistance due to the low glass transition temperature of the material and light emission of a long life and a high efficiency cannot be obtained.
However, the life and the properties are not always sufficient.

example 1

[0132] On a glass plate having a size of 25×75×1.1 mm, a transparent electrode made of indium tin oxide and having a thickness of 120 nm was formed. After the glass substrate was cleaned by irradiation with ultraviolet light and exposure to ozone, the glass substrate was placed in a vacuum vapor deposition apparatus.

[0133] After N,N′-bis[4-(diphenylamino)phenyl]-N,N′-diphenylbiphenyl-4,4′-diamine was vapor deposited so that a hole injecting layer having a thickness of 60 nm was formed, N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(4-biphenyl)-4,4′-benzidine was vapor deposited on the formed hole injecting layer so that a hole transporting layer having a thickness of 20 nm was formed. Then, compound (EM4) shown above as component (B) and compound (EM83) shown above as component (A) were simultaneously vapor deposited in amounts such that the ratio of the amount by weight of component (B) to the amount by weight of component (A) was 40:3 so that a light emitting layer having a thickness of 40 nm was formed.

[0136] Organic EL devices were prepared in accordance with the same procedures as those conducted in Example 1 except that compounds shown in Table 1 were used as component (B) and component (A). The results of testing the obtained devices by passing an electric current at a current density of 10 mA / cm2 are shown in Table 1. The half-life times obtained by the test of continuous passage of a direct current at initial luminances shown in Table 1 are also shown in Table 1.

[0142] An organic EL device was prepared in accordance with the same procedures as those conducted in Example 1 except that compounds shown in Table 2 were used as component (B) and component (A) and Alq:Cs / Al was used as the cathode. Alq:Cs / Al was a mixed layer containing Alq and Cs (cesium) metal as the electron transporting compounds in relative amounts by mole of 1:1. The results of testing the obtained device by passing an electric current at a current density of 10 mA / cm2 are shown in Table 2. The half-life time obtained by the test of continuous passage of a direct current at the initial luminance shown in Table 2 is also shown in Table 2.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to an organic electroluminescence (“electroluminescence” will be referred to as “EL”, hereinafter) device and an organic light emitting medium, and more particularly, to an organic EL device which exhibits excellent purity of color, has excellent heat resistance and a long life and efficiently emits bluish to yellowish light and an organic light emitting medium which is advantageously used for the organic EL device. BACKGROUND ART [0002] An organic EL is a spontaneous light emitting device which utilizes the principle that a fluorescent substance emits light by energy of recombination of holes injected from an anode and electrons injected from a cathode when an electric field is applied. [0003] Since an organic EL device of the laminate type driven under a low electric voltage was reported by C. W. Tang of Eastman Kodak Company (C. W. Tang and S. A. Vanslyke, Applied Physics Letters, Volume 51, Pages 913, 1987), many studies have ...
